Air Jordan 6 Rings & VI “Motorsports” 2010 Release Information


It seems as though the Air Jordan XI “Space Jam” release was not the only Christmas present Jordan Brand had in store for us. We would like to relay the following news to our devoted readers: the Air Jordan 6 Rings and VI “Motorsports” sneakers will in fact be releasing in 2010. The pack releasing in 2010 is the one we showed you back in November- in a cement black/white color palette. The “Motorsports” Air Jordan 6 Rings will release on March 6, 2010 and retail in adult sizes for $175. But the “Motorsports” Air Jordan VI is actually scheduled to release exactly one month earlier- February 6- also for $175 in adult sizes. We are sure this news will be welcomed by plenty, so the only remaining question is: Which of the two black/white Air Jordan “Motorsports Pack” silhouettes is the better one? Check out a picture of this finalized Air Jordan 6 Rings and a picture of this finalized AJ VI after the jump.

After showing you parts one, two, three, and four of the Air Jordan Silver Anniversary Collection, there is still one more set of five Air Jordans to give you a closer look at in the white-on-white colorway. But before we do that, we’d like to inform you of something else.

Air Jordan’s Silver Anniversary Collection pays homage to what will soon be 25 years since the first Air Jordan released, and to 25 years of pure sneaker greatness. To that extent, the Air Jordan 4 pictured here will be one of AT LEAST two pairs (previewed already) slated to make an actual release at some point in the future. To find out what the other pair is, simply check-in with us after the jump, where we also challenge you to give us only ONE more signature Air Jordan silhouette you would like to see release in this colorway if you had a choice.

Nike Air Griffey Max 1 – Grey / Silver / Blue


After retro’ing Griffey’s first signature shoe with the brand, Nike have released a new but instant classic colorway for the popular sneaker. The Nike Air Griffey Max 1 comes in a grey/silver/blue colorway, complete with a grey leather and synthetic upper, metallic silver swoosh, and turquoise blue accents at the laces, tongue tab, and back heel swoosh. The turquoise nicely contrasts the full grey upper, a trait that is staple for the shoe’s previous colorways. The clean upper sits on a white midsole and black outsole to get the job done. You can cop this shoe early before it hits the States for $117.
